NBA Jerseys Redesigned

Designer Pete Rogers took some time and reimagined the jersey design for each NBA Team. These are not official uniforms.

“I love designing jerseys in my free time. I have a ton of fun doing research on teams and cities and finding cool and interesting ways to represent that on a jersey. Given that we’re all currently in quarantine with a little extra free time on our hands, I decided a while back to undertake the task of redesigning the entire NBA. After almost a month, I finally completed the redesign and came up with a new jersey for every NBA team. I’ve included a quick blurb with each jersey just laying out my thought process with each one.” Pete Rogers @petemrogers

Take a look below and see which team you think came out the best.

Kevin Durant's New KD13 Signature Shoe

Kevin Durant has released his latest signature shoe, the Nike Zoom KD13. The new shoe features an additional zoom cushion unit that is placed in the forefoot of the shoe below the full-length Air Zoom strobel. The addition and placement of the zoom cushion encourages movement off the ball of the foot.

“The intent behind a Zoom Bag is similar to that of a mechanical spring underfoot. The essence of a spring is to return the amount of energy you put into it. In the KD13, we're doubling the spring in the form of the double-stacked forefoot Zoom, allowing you more travel in the system and more energy back.” -Ross Klein, Senior Creative Director for Nike Basketball

We will see the KD13 launch April 6th globally and April 17th in North America.
